Amherst Golf Club

Amherst is the largest of Hampshire County's college towns, positioned along the Connecticut River valley near the Pelham Hills. The golf club here puts nine holes in a community where the Five Colleges academic culture and the valley's open agricultural terrain give outdoor recreation an unpretentious character. The surrounding upland is typical Hampshire County — gently wooded, open to the broad valley sky, and shaped by the Pelham Hills to the east.
